Another one from the portrait techniques I'm trying with the Canon G12. These lilies had just had a morning shower and I found their appearance appealing with the way the light was hitting them. All comments and critiques appreciated especially regarding techniques. (Canon G12, 1/250 sec, F/4.0, Foc 21MM, ISO80)

A beautiful and moody image, Kathy. Don't you miss your old Panasonic? Wonderful closeup look at the lilies. Your use of light is amazing. One of your best. The details are sharp and the water droplets add some highlights. Stupendous colors. You should teach a class. Faves for me.

Kathy, I think this is at top of the list in your gallery, beautiful eye popping color, and details are superb. Of course the water droplets add even more to this excellent image, that has been composed so well. Tigs♥ =^..^=

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

A great camera, Kathy, and I like the way the sun is hitting these orange beauties too.

Beautiful lighting and colours in this photo, Kathy. Glad to know someone is having some showers in the midst of all this heat. A great capture and presentation.

Kathy - The low angle lighting makes this image pop. Well done! Thad
